It's very sad about Alfa Only. If you are looking for another mechanic try Alfa Italia in Burbank. I think the DeLeonardis brothers are great. Onofrio and Vitario have restored my 1961 Spider and Keep my 164, Dodge Dakota and Acura Legend running. Alfa Italia (818) 841-6959 1700 N. San Fernando Blvd. Burbank, CA 91504
